The City of Lauderhill Proudly Announces Andrew Smalling as the City's New Police Chief

A Swearing-In Ceremony & Reception will take place in City Hall's Commission Chambers on Thursday, 09/15 at 10:00 am. Chief Smalling takes over as Police Chief from Kenneth Pachnek who served this role for almost (11) years.

While Chief Smalling has been transitioning into this role in the City of Lauderhill for the past few months, it is not unfamiliar territory for him. Chief Smalling has served the last 19 1/2 years with the Broward Sheriff's Office in several different agency positions.

He was a School Resource Officer, a Narcotics Detective, and the K-9 Unit Commander at one point. His career with the Sheriff's Office culminated in his appointment as the Police Chief at Lauderdale Lakes for the past (11) years. This vast leadership role as well as his Marine Corps success as an Intelligence Officer will surely be an asset to the Lauderhill Police Department. Chief Smalling is very familiar with the City of Lauderhill having served our neighboring community for the past decade.

Join us this Thursday, September 15th at 10 am as the City of Lauderhill welcomes our new Police Chief Andrew Smalling.
